Flamengo vs Corinthians

Flamengo edged a tense Maracanã clash against Corinthians, needing a stoppage-time header to escape with all three points. It was the kind of scrappy, back-and-forth affair that could have gone either way until the very end, with the hosts controlling the ball for long stretches but struggling to turn pressure into goals until the second half. Lucas Paquetá broke the deadlock early in the second half, pouncing on a loose ball from a corner to put the hosts ahead. Corinthians responded through Gui Negão, who tapped in from close range to level things up and give the visitors hope of an away point. But Bruno Henrique had other ideas, rising to head home the winner deep into stoppage time and sparking wild celebrations among the home crowd. The win sends Flamengo back to the summit of the Brasileirão, now a point clear of Palmeiras, underlining their attacking depth even when things aren't clicking early. For Corinthians, it's another frustrating result that keeps them mired in mid-table, still searching for the consistency needed to climb away from 13th place.
